🧮 Forward Value (FV) Estimation

Let’s stay conservative, like your CA.

  • TTM EPS: ₹36.52
  • Fair P/E: 15 (commodity chemicals, high volatility)

FV = ₹36.52 × 15 = ₹547.80

CMP = ₹524.70
➡️ Upside: ~4.4%
Fairly Valued. Enter if you’re bullish on chemicals or just want a dividend-friendly grinder.


🏦 Cash Flow Highlights

Type₹ Cr
🧾 CFO (Cash from Ops)₹265 Cr

📉 CFI (Investing Cash Flow)-₹876 Cr
🏦 CFF (Financing Flow)-₹1,361 Cr
Net Change in Cash₹408 Cr (because of last year’s low base)

Despite profits, free cash flow is negative due to aggressive CAPEX. They’re betting big on future scale.

🎯 EduInvesting Take

“When revenue’s chilling but PAT is sprinting — look for magic in ‘Other Income’.”

IGPL has built a consistent, well-managed business. But FY25 growth came not from sales, but from financial wizardry (investments, interest, income). And that makes us cautious.

CAPEX-heavy. Chem-heavy. Promoter-heavy.

If FY26 sees operating margin expansion from CAPEX spend, great. Else? You might just be sitting on glassware with no chemical reaction.


🧨 Risks

  • EPS growth driven more by income than ops
  • RPT web needs more transparency
  • Capex stress could dent future dividends
  • Flat revenue = stagnant pricing power

🏁 Final Verdict

  • EPS strong ✅
  • Revenue meh ❌
  • Valuation fair ✅
  • Transparency? Eh. ⚠️

“A good stock at a fair price — but not a compounding machine unless ops catch up.”
